Ke$ha is suing her producer Dr. Luke.

According to a new lawsuit  – obtained by TMZ – Ke$ha is claiming that her producer of ten years was abusive towards her almost from the get-go, when she signed with him at 18-years-old.
The Timber star says he made repeated sexual advances towards her, and he would force her to use drugs and alcohol.

In one instance, Ke$ha claims he forced her to snort something before getting on a plane, and during the trip he forced himself on her while she was drugged.

On another occasion, Ke$ha claims after forcing her to drink with him, Dr. Luke gave her what he called "sober pills." The 27-year-old claims she woke up the following afternoon, naked in Dr. Luke's bed – sore, sick, and with no memory of how she got there.

Ke$ha says the alleged abuse led to her eating disorder, which isn’t surprising considering she’s claiming he said, among other things, "You are not that pretty, you are not that talented, you are just lucky to have me."
Ke$ha is asking a judge to let her out of her contract with Dr. Luke.

Ke$ha's lawyer, Mark Geragos, told TMZ: "This lawsuit is a wholehearted effort by Kesha to regain control of her music career and her personal freedom after suffering for ten years as a victim of mental manipulation, emotional abuse and an instance of sexual assault at the hands of Dr. Luke."

Geragos adds, "The facts presented in our lawsuit paint a picture of a man who is controlling and willing to commit horrible acts of abuse in an attempt to intimidate an impressionable, talented, young female artist into submission for his personal gain. Ke$ha is focused on moving her life and her career beyond this terrible time."

Dr. Luke has made no comment on the alleged claims.
